PSG made favourites to sign Rooney

With speculation surrounding Wayne Rooney’s future refusing to go away, Paris Saint-Germain have been installed as the bookmakers’ 3/1 favourite to be the Manchester Untied forward’s next club.

Newspaper reports continue to link United with a move for former striker Cristiano Ronaldo, and the natural conclusion that most assume is that Rooney, who has slipped down the pecking order since Robin van Persie arrived, will then leave the club.

Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Chelsea are made the 9/1 joint-favourites, although it is extremely unlikely that he would join another English club, particularly Manchester City.

The move to PSG, from the French club’s point of view, could be instigated by Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s reported desire to leave Paris. The Swede has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich to link up with former boss Pep Guardiola in the summer.
